Had a great time....traffic was a bit crazy....parking was mildly easy right in front of the Civic Center. Great venue for sporting events, this was my 5 year old's first game of any kind and this is a perfect place to do a first. Pretty low key compared to a big stadium or dome. Will definitely go again and may even buy season tickets. And we live 90 miles away. Well done.
Great spectator sport! First hockey game I've ever attended and I will definitely be going back! So much fun to watch, very fast paced so it doesn't get boring; I would recommend reading up on some of the rules before attending tho so you have an idea of what's going on. Tons of giveaways and crowd involvement. Definitely a good experience and would be a great family activity!
We have recently moved here from Chicago, so to see one of our teams felt like home on a smaller basis. The staff at the Civic Center were found to be kind, courteous, and knowledgeable. When our children come in town, our outing will be the last game here against the Chicago Wolves and we will all be in attendance.
I always enjoy watching the Rivermen. This was the first game I've been to that they lost but I loved every minute. GO RIVERMEN !!!
This was my second visit to the Peoria Rivermen at the Civic Center in Peoria Illinois. It was as much fun as the first time. I am already planning my next trip. You see, I drive 2 hours to get there and stay overnight. My husband and I can do this weekend trip including hockey tickets and hotel for about the price of one Blackhawks ticket. The game is just as fast and the skill level reasonably close to NHL caliber. A good time and a great value.
This was the first game my 6 year old son and my husband has ever been to a game and they had a blast and want to go to many more games to come.
Got tickets as a birthday gift from my wife. We had great seats. It was a really fun night. Enjoyed the game, even though we lost.. Caught a t-shirt from the shirt cannon!
Took my 8 year old daughter to her first hockey game. Even though Rivermen played a lousy game(lost 1-3) we did enjoy ourselves. The band Need To Breathe that followed was really good .
We got good seats in the upper bowl at center ice. Game had lots of action, scoring, an exciting finish, and best of all, the Rivermen WON!! Go Rivermen !! Food, drink, and bathrooms very accessible - we had a great time!
As a St. Louis Blues season ticket holder I'm a huge hockey fan. A group of us decided at the end of last season that we we're going to make our way to Peoria, IL to see our future Blues play at the minor league level. This past weekend we made the trip and had a great time. Peoria is a smaller town, but with plenty to do. The game was action packed and very economical. For $20 a seat we sat 8 rows off the ice and on the red line. Couldn't even get into a Blues game on a weekend for $20. Ticketmaster held our tickets at will call and we picked them up about an hour before the game. Everything was great and I would recommend taking in a Rivermen's game to anyone.
I attend at least one Rivermen game each year. The fans can be crazy and unforgiving, but that is always part of the fun. The people I go with are of varying degrees of hockey knowledge, but we all have a good time.
Good game, easy to find venue with ample parking. Terribly uncomfortable seats.
A new comer to hockey, the game was great, venue was friendly, lots going on in between periods, good and reasonably priced concessions. Great for families, buddy bonding and dates!
Second year we've done the Rivermen New Years Eve thing and loved it again! Only recommendation would be to have the Miller Lite on special instead of the Bud Lite!!!
first rivermen hockey game we will be back for sure it is worth the ride
what a great game!!!!!! the stadium is clean the atmosphere was electric . and the seats were amazing and well priced. i have now become a fan and always will be .
This was our (me and my husband) first hockey game. WE LOVED IT. I have already purchased a 4-game package from the Rivermen. the only complaint I have is that the seats are not big enough. My and husband and I are not small people so we didn't fit comfortably in them. Other than that, we had so much fun!
I purchased tickets to this game for my teenage daughter and her friend. The reason for them attending the game was due to Kellan Lutz from Twilight being at the facility to sign autographs. As it turned out, he was not there. We were not aware of this; until they were at the game. Needless to say, they were very disappointed. To be honest, they were not that interested in the game at all.
I had never been to a hockey game prior to this event and was so pleased I chose to go. The game was awesome! My reason for selecting this particular game was the appearance of Kellan Lutz, which was canceled and someone else I didn't know replaced him so that was disappointing since we didn't know until we got there and we could have gone a bit later instead of getting there so early. I would definitely recommend a rivermen game (or an Icehogs game for that matter) to anyone. Both teams were great to watch and I plan on going back for another game soon!
